MorphOS was/IS a powerpc solution and it shipped last year.


@MarkTime

MorphOS shiped as a Beta-version last year ... if you read some of the other posts, AmigaOS 4.0 also "shiped" last year (November)!

Now you might say that MorphOS was public last year ... but you could still only buy it with the Betatester board!

AmigaOS 4.0 has not been public, but it looks like it's out there - in Beta state.

The first public Beta of MorphOS was released a few years ago. Last year was released the final-Beta of MorphOS, basically the finished product sans a few components that we do not feel are ready for prime time.


Still MorphOS was still in Betastate!!!

Ok, there where releases before ... AmigaOS has been there a long time ... whats the point?

What you call "the final-Beta of MorphOS" was still a Beta version ... so MorphOS wasn't released last year! MorphOS was still only for Betatesters, so MorphOS wasn't released last year!

So at your point a product is released, when the betatesters have got their almost finished product? Then congrats to Hyperion, it sounds like Some Betabesters are using AmigaOS 4.0 Beta every day on their machines, so it must have been released .. no I don't think so!
